Sugar Mommas Plot

If your first thought after reading the movie title was related to wealthy older women seeking younger men, you’re wrong. However, sugar dating is more popular than you think. You’ll see that stars in the movie struggle with dating. Such inspiring ladies as Sheila, Thomasina, and Lynn would easily find guys on the sugar momma dating site when they say they own a bakery. Even in sugar relationships, additional sweetness is always welcome. But most women on the site aren’t in the baking business. Maybe they’ve watched Sugar Mommas and realized how difficult it is to run a bakery.

The plot of Sugar Mommas builds around sisters Sheila and Lynn. They decide to take a leap of fate and open a bakery with their friend Tommy. Of course, the movie would be terrible if it’s 100% sweet, so ladies have different problems to deal with throughout the film. Even though they’re sisters, Sheila and Lynn are completely different. They have different mindsets, habits, and approaches. That’s what makes their relationship so fun. We won’t spoil anything more. You can read our review of the movie below. But first, we’ll show you who are the stars of Sugar Mommas (2012).
